When i said: > If it remains in a unstable state there is serious problem somewhere i answered to your phrase: > After parse error the parser/compiler and whole engine may be in unstable state If parsing a file may put the entire engine in an unstable state there is a problem: never heard that a parser can do this The problem can be that the engine is written to shutdown after a parser error and this is can cause troubles i think, but the problem is that i'm not zend/php developer :) However i don't think that is necessary to rewrite the engine from the scracth, a feature like this, at logic level, must follow rules followed by other errors This afternoon i'll take a look to the parser and to the zend engine to understand how errors are passed Thanks a lot Bye Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-06-26 12:43:06] [EMAIL PROTECTED] >If it remains in a unstable state there is serious problem somewhere :\ I don't think so, but you're encouraged to help us, the sources are open after all. I'm sure nobody is going to rewrite the engine from scratch using some other tools just because you want to catch parse errors. So there is no sense to keep this feature request open. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-06-26 12:34:37] d dot albano at gmail dot com if parser, before to compile and execute, check the code to see if the syntax is right how can remain the engine in an unstable state? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-06-26 12:31:16] d dot albano at gmail dot com If there is a parse error, this error stop parsing of scripting engine, and this is ok, but where is the problem? And why it should remain in an unstable state? This doesn't make sense: it's parsing php code ... it isin't executing it If it remains in a unstable state there is serious problem somewhere :\ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-06-26 11:49:38] [EMAIL PROTECTED] After parse error the parser/compiler and whole engine may be in unstable state, hence it's impossible to catch it as well as any other fatal errors. They are fatal errors just because of that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-06-26 11:30:34] d dot albano at gmail dot com As i've said: > I understand that there isin't an easy way to do but a point of start > can be define it through htaccess/php_value or simply use it only with > included files after that set_error_handler is setted Exactly for that reason: a file that is parsed can't rely on any error_handler but if a file is included by another script that initialize the error handler the stuff change becase the code is executed normally and the file is included at runtime Infact the code that i written refer exactly to this: check parse errors on included files not on the main file. It is normal that isn't possible to catch errors in main.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
